Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites store in the user's browser in order to remember information about their visit, such as keeping them logged in or remembering which link brought them to the site. This Policy has been drawn up in accordance with Article 22.2 of Spanish Act 34/2002 on Information Society Services and Electronic Commerce (Ley 34/2002, LSSI-CE), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR/RGPD) and the guidelines issued by the Spanish Data Protection Agency (Agencia Española de Protección de Datos).

2. Cookies used by maikhomes.com

This website uses first-party cookies only. We do not currently use third-party cookies or third-party analytics tools. The cookies used are as follows:

Cookie Type Purpose Duration
Session cookie (PHP) Technical, first-party, strictly necessary Maintaining the user's session: account log-in, booking and payment process, online check-in and form security. Without it, the site cannot work properly. Session (deleted when the browser is closed)
mh_consent Technical, first-party, preference cookie (exempt from consent) Remembering the user's decision on each category of optional cookies (measurement and affiliate attribution), so that the notice is not shown again on every visit. It stores only that decision and its date. 12 months
mh_lang Technical, first-party, preference cookie (exempt from consent) Remembering the language (Spanish or English) the user has chosen with the site's language selector, so that every page is served in that language on their next visits. It is only created when the user chooses a language and stores only that value. 12 months
_ga Analytics, third-party (Google), non-essential Distinguishing visitors on a statistical basis in order to measure use of the site (Google Analytics 4). It is only installed if the user accepts the "Measurement" category in the cookie notice. 2 years
_ga_<ID> Analytics, third-party (Google), non-essential Maintaining the Google Analytics 4 measurement session state. Same condition: only with express acceptance of the "Measurement" category. 2 years
mh_ref First-party, attribution (not strictly necessary) Recording the affiliate link through which the user reached the site, so that the booking can be correctly attributed and the commission paid to the relevant affiliate. 30 days

The technical cookies (session, mh_consent and mh_lang) are exempt from consent, as they are strictly necessary to provide the service requested by the user or to remember their decision regarding cookies. The measurement cookies (_ga, _ga_<ID>) and the mh_ref attribution cookie are NOT installed unless the user expressly accepts their category in the cookie notice: until they do so, the Google script is not even loaded. Refusing them has no effect on browsing or on the ability to make a booking. The preference is remembered by means of the mh_consent cookie, and the user may change or withdraw it at any time via the "Cookie settings" link available in the footer of every page, just as easily as it was given; when affiliate attribution is withdrawn, the mh_ref cookie is deleted at that very moment.

The processing of personal data associated with these cookies (for example, the attribution of bookings to affiliates through mh_ref) is described in the Privacy Policy.

3. What we do NOT use

  • We do not use advertising, profiling or cross-site tracking cookies. Our only analytics tool is Google Analytics 4, which is activated solely with the user's prior consent, is configured with IP anonymisation and ad personalisation switched off, and does not share data with Google for Google's own purposes.
  • We do not load fonts from Google Fonts or other third-party servers: our fonts are hosted on our own servers, so loading them does not involve any transfer of data to third parties.
  • We do not disclose to third parties the information obtained through cookies. The attribution data from mh_ref is used internally and exclusively to settle commissions under the affiliate programme.

4. How to disable or delete cookies

Users may refuse or withdraw their consent to the measurement cookies and to the mh_ref cookie through the site's cookie notice or cookie settings link and may also block or delete all cookies (including technical cookies, mh_consent and mh_lang) from their browser settings. Please note that blocking the technical session cookie will make it impossible to log in, make a booking or complete online check-in, that deleting mh_consent will cause the cookie notice to be displayed again, and that deleting mh_lang means the language will once again be decided by that of the browser.

5. Updates to this Policy

If we add new cookies or tools in the future (analytics, for example), this Policy will be updated before they are put into operation and, where legally required, the user's prior consent will be requested through the cookie notice. The current version will always be available on the website together with the date it was last updated.
